33. The luminescence efficiency of the short-lived component of the 330-nm band may be given by a time integral of its decay curve. A total one of the short- and long-lived is given by SMA spectral intensity over the same wavelength range as that for the decay measurement. The ratio of the latter to the former was (Formula presented) Such large efficiency of the latter means that a major part of the 330-nm luminescence is emitted after the disappearance of the short-lived component.
